Ah! My bad. In that case, I guess you would need to "pipe" the output to
another process which would actually implement the "wrap around" logic
to a file. I don't know of any such program, off hand. Does the "Batch
PIPES" product still exist? That might be easier to implement than doing
it yourself using UNIX facilities. The main problem that I see is
starting the UNIX receiver process when your program starts. Unless your
program is a UNIX program, then it is rather simple to start up the
"receiver" using shell piping.
